Chapter 6: Coding for multiple disk failures

Abstract

EVENODD, RDP, and X-code are Maximum Distance Separable - MDS codes in that they incur the minimum level of redundancy to tolerate two disk failures with parity coding. EVENODD outperforms Reed-Solomon codes and RDP is shown to outperform EVENODD in the number of XORs required. Two-dimensional codes are also discussed.
